Abstract. In this paper, we introduce background cut, a high quality and realtime foreground layer extraction algorithm. From a single video sequence with a moving foreground objec...
Quality control and resource optimization are challenging problems in peer-assisted video streaming systems, due to their large scales and unreliable peer behavior. Such systems a...
This paper addresses automatic image annotation problem and its application to multi-modal image retrieval. The contribution of our work is three-fold. (1) We propose a probabilis...
Current state-of-the-art image-based scene reconstruction
techniques are capable of generating high-fidelity 3D
models when used under controlled capture conditions.
However, th...

POMDPs are the models of choice for reinforcement learning (RL) tasks where the environment cannot be observed directly. In many applications we need to learn the POMDP structure ...
